I went into a serious depression for like 2 weeks after i read this. Every day i wanted to quit my job and move far away from everything. I'm out of it now but no book I've read so far has ever affected me in this way.

>technics
Also, how's it compared to his other book?
Kayden Roberts
You won't get the full meaning of man and technics if you read it on its own, Spengler inverted his philosophy of history in his later life revealed only through his unpublished private writings. Man and technics is just a glance into his second philosophy of history. John Farrenkopf's book Prophet of Decline explains it very well

Easton Rogers
Technics is different from Decline. It's more pessimistic (contains the famous 'Optimism is Cowardice'), and it focuses more on the metaphysics of technology, which was influential on people like Heidegger and Wittgenstein. Spengler predicts that, unlike his previous assessions, Western civilization will be the last civilization, because its material consumption and ubiquitous spread will decimate the earth itself, causing species extinctions and ecological collapse.
